New Star Trek Strategy Title Imminent?

We expect our savvy readers have already seen rumor of a new Star Trek title in development at Mad Doc Software, the folks behind Star Trek: Armada II and, more recently, Empire Earth II.

While no one has officially confirmed the new title, various sources online claim the game, titled Star Trek: Legacy, is indeed in the works, with Bethesda Softworks as publisher. The game -- likely a strategy title, given Mad Doc's portfolio -- will reportedly span the entire history of the franchise, from the original series through Star Trek: Enterprise.

When contacted, Bethesda offered no comment on the project. Tellingly, however, a Mad Doc representative referred IGN to Bethesda for "assistance, interviews and general information regarding the Star Trek: Legacy title." That may not be an official announcement, but for Star Trek fans, it's still gold.
